Beauty
Beauty
(‘Lady In Waiting” by Jackie Kendall & Debby Jones)
The world has convinced many Christians that the only way to
get a man’s attention is through a gorgeous body.
The word of God very clearly warns women not to fall into “the
body beautiful trap”. Your beauty should not come from outward adornment such
as braided hair and the wearing of gold jewelry and fine clothing (1 Pet. 3:2
NIV).
Although braided hair and the gold jewelry are not wrong in
and of themselves, real beauty is not found on the outside. This verse does not
advocate homeliness as proof of godliness.
Some women are under the misguided
perception that to be holy, one must look homely. This is not true.
Women should seek to look their best-challenge yourself to
not devote all of your energies towards painting the outside, thus neglecting
enduring qualities that need developing on the inside.
